Aaronia SPECTRAN HF-2025, Manual

Page: 45 / 72

Before taking any measurement, you must tell SPECTRAN WHICH antenna
and/or which cable is connected. Otherwise, SERIOUS mismeasurement can
occur, as every antenna and every cable has totally different characteristics. All
Aaronia antennas and cables have thus been calibrated. You can select these
pre-defined calibration data on SPECTRAN, but also load your own custom cali-
bration settings.
As a factory default (on delivery), the
recommended configuration “HyperLOG
antenna” with “1m SMA cable” is selected. Thus, you do not need to make any
changes now if you are using this configuration .
For hardware setup, press the menu key now. You will be directed to the
main menu.
Now, using the up/down arrow keys or the jog dial, first navigate to the
AntTyp menu entry.
Activate the menu entry by pressing the ENTER key or clicking the jog dial.
You are now being shown a list of antennas. Using the up/down arrow
keys or the jog dial, choose the connected antenna. Here, “
HL7025 ” cor-
responds to the HyperLOG7025 etc. If you do not have an antenna
connected, choose “
None ” as antenna type. Confirm your entry by pressing
the ENTER key or clicking the jog dial. You are now being taken back to
the main menu.
Now, again using the up/down arrow keys or the jog dial, navigate to the
menu entry
Cable .
Activate the menu entry by pressing the ENTER key or clicking the jog dial.
You are now being presented a list of cables. Choose the connected
cable by using the up/down arrow keys or the jog dial. The “
1m Std ” entry
corresponds to the 1M SMA cable included with delivery. If there is no cable
connected, choose “
None ” as cable type.
Confirm your selection by pressing the ENTER key or clicking the jog dial.
You are now being taken back to the main menu.
Press the MENU button once more, and the new values are being confir-
med and stored.
ATTENTION! All settings regarding antennas and cables are stored perma-
nently , even after switching the unit off. Hence, each time you use the unit,
you should make sure that the connected antenna and cable really correspond
with the settings made in the Hardware SETUP, as otherwise, severe mis-
measurement may occur!
